<p>
The DirectFB port of GTK+ is an implementation of GDK (and therefore GTK+) 
on top of the <a class="ulink" href="http://www.directfb.org" target="_top">DirectFB</a> 
libraries.
</p>
<p>
Like the obsolete linux-fb port of GTK+, it runs on the Linux framebuffer,
but the DirectFB libraries provide additional features like hardware graphics 
acceleration, input device handling and abstraction and an integrated windowing 
system.

<div class="refsect2">
<a name="id451314"></a><h3>Build requirements</h3>
<p>
Beyond the usual GTK+ build requirements, the DirectFB backend (obviously) 
needs the DirectFB libraries (at least 0.9.21) and cairo compiled with 
DirectFB support.
